April 25, 200421 yr Can anyone tell me a little bit about this guy. I was looking at his stats, and it seems like he was a solid college player, and his numbers imply he had a good year in Great Falls last season--though perhaps a few too many strikeouts. Anyway, what kind of player is he? What outfield position does he play? Any guesses on how far his talent can take him?
April 25, 200421 yr He can play any outfield position, although he's more of a left fielder when compared to the other prospects. The guy has good power potential as he was the college home run leader last season. King really struggled out of the gate last season and then caught fire. He doesn't have huge size or anything, but has good pop. I think with him its still kind of a wait and see whether he'll be able to hit for power without the aluminum bat, but he is a quality player who kind of gets overlooked (so does Thomas Brice) because of all the talented outfielders in the system.

Thanks, that was just what I was looking for.
April 26, 200421 yr Thanks, that was just what I was looking for. You brought him good luck; he hit his 1st homer of the season today.
